It's just a mom in the throes of incest having sex with her son and his boyfriend. Normal everyday stuff.

You must have daddy issues.

In other news, drove by the theater and it was packed to the max. Good to see 2014 ending on a high note.

Hope we get some Friday numbers soon

SELMA was the only big new movie NOT to sell out at the Arclight yesterday. Someone get Sasha Stone P.I. on this to yell at everybody

And in SoCal, sometimes you'll hear some whoop-whoops or even a name called out for some random person in the credits. It's kinda like Liittle League that way.

I always whoop a bit and point out the artist at Disney who used to work at my company. Good fun.

It's true that I feel like Jolie isn't reaching her fullest potential as an actress. you can see great stuff here and there but it's not rounded. though it's the problem w/ the system, great directors aren't knocking at the door for her like they do for her husband because so many of them make male centric stories and Jolie should be getting lead roles.

 

Same with meryl, people always complain about her not working w/ great directors, but when's the last time Scorsese or Fincher had a part in their movies that was worth her getting out of bed for?

 

 

PREACH 

 

 

He probably dislikes them for reasons unrelated to their acting ability.

 

Personally, most of Jolie's films are bland to me. When Kung Fu :Panda is the most enjoyable film you've been a part of, there's something wrong 

 

I haven't seen Girl, Interrupted though. 

 

but it is irritating seeing Meryl get an Oscar nod for everything she appears in. I'm half surprised she didn't get nods for Lemony Snicket and Mamma Mia 

 

Goddess was divine in Lemony Snicket and Mamma Mia.

So after watching Hobbit 3 a second time, it really struck me that the way Ravenhill looks is as if PJ told his production designer "Make me the most boss fighty showdown spot that ever bossfought."

[Blankments]

really? with the multitudes of bad actresses, Meryl Streep and Angelina Jolie are the worst on the planet huh?

There's a major difference between "least favorite" and "untalented"

[Blankments]

Wait you anti-stan Jolie? And Streep?

Please stop liking my posts, effective immediately.

LOL as if you didn't notice me being anti-Jolie this past summer

[Blankments]

Goddess was divine in Lemony Snicket and Mamma Mia. 

I think Lemony Snicket might be the one movie I've seen Meryl in that I actively liked her acting

[Blankments]

On the bright side though, one of my favorite actresses came out with a movie this weekend too!

 

(And also, I do hope Into the Woods does well, because I like everyone in the cast except Streep and Depp lol)

You have not seen kramer vs kramer?

[Lordmandeep]

Is it me or does the ending of Hobbit 3 look like a video game cutscene? 

[ecstasy]

Savage Grace I think. It's actually really good.

 

 

 

Good but disturbing. My introduction to Eddie Redmayne as an actor.

I don't think I will ever understand why Christmas Day is always so big. I mean who goes to the freaking cinema on Xmas?! I thought you're meant to be with your family and all that. 

 

I'm guessing you don't live in America?

 

EVERYTHING is closed Christmas day.   

 

Except for movie theaters.

 

You might find a gas station or CVS or something that is open, but if you want to do anything, you have to go to the theater to do it.

It's not just you. That climax looked like a video game to me also. Even Legolas taking down a whole elephant in ROTK didn't feel as much like a video game as him running up those crumbling stones in freaking slow motion...

No, I live in the UK. I asked my family at dinner if they'd ever heard of someone going to the cinema on Christmas Day and they hadn't, in their 50 years of existence, heard of such a thing.

 

I can't imagine anyone "doing anything" on Christmas tbh, cinema or otherwise.

I don't happen to agree, but regardless, how is that a bad thing?

Legolas plays the game of life on God Mode, that's all.

Except for love, he strikes out there.

NOPE

It had the plot of a final boss battle too.
